Obama, anxious to please Russia, promised Putin he'd be better able to do so (and double cross chump Americans) after his final election in Nov. 2012. Medvedev said he'd give that message to Vladimir Putin-Washington Times, 3/29/2012 (Perhaps Obama has sentimental feeling about Russia since his parents met in a Russian language class in Hawaii)

“This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.”
That statement tells us much about the president’s mindset.

The
specific mention of missile defense is worrisome enough. Mr. Obama has
retreated from the missile defense plan that was negotiated with
European allies during the George W. Bush administration. Apparently, he
is signaling Moscow that he intends to retreat further.The clear
implication from the president’s comments is that he cannot tell the
American people before the election what he plans to do after the
election.

In addition, there is the phrase “on all these issues,” implying more is at stake than just missile defense.

“More flexibility”
without having to answer to voters againmay well mean cuts in nuclear
weapons and capability that will end the peace-through-strength approach
pursued by both parties for more than 50 years. In addition, “more
flexibility” in an attempt to please Russian President-elect Vladimir Putin also could include a host of other measures that weaken the United States and reduce the confidence other nations have in us....

Mr. Obama seems anxious to be unshackled from
the American voters so he can do what he thinks is best for all of us
without having to be accountable for it. His comments are revealing-and deeply disturbing. Undoubtedly, they should be an important turning
point for those who may be unsure of his leadership and the direction in
which he seeks to take our country now and in the future."
